Totally unbiased article by a prominent expert on the subject backed by irrefutable statistical data

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Nutt

David John Nutt (born 16 April 1951) DM FRCP FRCPsych FMedSci is a British psychiatrist and neuropsychopharmacologist specialising in the research of drugs that affect the brain and conditions such as addiction,anxiety and sleep.[3] He was until 2009 a professor at the University of Bristol heading their Psychopharmacology Unit.[4] Since then he has been the Edmond J Safra chair in Neuropsychopharmacology at Imperial College, London.[5] Nutt was a member of the Committee on Safety of Medicines, and was President of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology.[6][7][8] His book "Drugs without the hot air" (UIT press) won the Transmission Prize for Communicating Science in 2014.

Judge legalisation of addictions by degree of potential consequences to others.

I interpret this as "actually assess the real world effects of each current illicit and legislate its legality according to the factual severity of their impact" - ie the sensible way to go about it, not unnecessarily demonising everything as we've seen in the past?

If so, I agree 100%. People should be allowed to do as they please with their own bodies in the appropriate settings (privacy of home), within reason. So long as the results of their use have no appreciable negative impact on any aspect of society, INCLUDING resulting health complications that impact the public healthcare system and taxpayer, then really it's on the user. Still need some measures to ensure the user doesn't do something stupid, which is understandably a topic of concern that would need addressing...though really I believe that comes down to education, which is where I see some others' points regarding driving whilst high - you can't PREVENT it from happening; you can only really catch the person in the act, which is too late. The fact this is already of concern with alcohol doesn't take away from 'drug driving' either, so I do see the point in the argument of not adding more to a current problem by decriminilising certain things.

Heroin and opiates in general I don't have any interest in touching personally. I also believe heroin to be one of the drugs that shouldn't ever be derestricted as it has far too high abuse potential leading to nasty dependence. Meth also goes in this category imo. They have too high impact on society when abused, which is somewhat inevitable.

Did you see anything cool when you tried DMT?

Personally, I've never experienced the kind of hallucinations the layperson associates with hallucinogens like LSD, DMT, mushrooms, etc. Like the whole seeing things that are absolutely not there, like elephants haha. Or the wall fully melting, or my immediate reality dissolving. The most I've 'seen' is having geometric fractal patterns wash over my whole vision, distorting everything I see into a colourful twisted mess; unfortunately no machine elves or 'common' DMT phenomena.

While visuals are one aspect of tripping I enjoy greatly, I still enjoy most other aspects equally - like the overwhelming understanding and realisation (of something, haha), the awe and wonder, the HOLY SHIT THIS IS INCREDIBLE WOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW. Generally DMT slaps me hard enough that opening my eyes doesn't really cross my mind, and it's more laying there for 10-15 minutes in relative bliss.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
